Texaco brand conventional lubricants were installed in each vehicle\u2019s engine, transmission, and front and rear differentials. Both trucks simultaneously completed runs on a 40-mile test route representative of real-world driving conditions beginning and ending at Ford\u2019s Rawsonville fleet maintenance facility.<br \/>\nFuel consumption was recorded from each vehicle\u2019s engine control module (ECM)<br \/>\nfollowing each run. Although both vehicles were operated using the same conventional<br \/>\nlubricants and according to the same procedures, the test truck consumed an average<br \/>\nof 0.37 more gallons of fuel per run compared to the control truck.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/image7.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/image_thumb5.png\" alt=\"image\" width=\"701\" height=\"289\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The test truck alone was then thoroughly flushed of its conventional lubricants prior to<br \/>\ninstalling AMSOIL synthetic lubricants. Both trucks simultaneously completed runs on<br \/>\nthe test route according to the same procedures used during the baseline segment. Fuel<br \/>\nconsumption data was again recorded from the ECMs. The switch to AMSOIL synthetic<br \/>\nlubricants eliminated the 0.37-gallon difference in fuel consumption per baseline<br \/>\nsegment run, resulting in 6.54 percent improved fuel economy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/image8.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/image_thumb6.png\" alt=\"image\" width=\"727\" height=\"314\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WordPress Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/AMSOIL\" rel=\"Tag\">AMSOIL<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/SYNTHETIC\" rel=\"Tag\">SYNTHETIC<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/LUBRICANTS\" rel=\"Tag\">LUBRICANTS<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/INCREASE\" rel=\"Tag\">INCREASE<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/FUEL\" rel=\"Tag\">FUEL<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/ECONOMY\" rel=\"Tag\">ECONOMY<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/PERCENT\" rel=\"Tag\">PERCENT<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/benefits\" rel=\"Tag\">benefits<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/industry\" rel=\"Tag\">industry<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Service\" rel=\"Tag\">Service<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Test\" rel=\"Tag\">Test<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Procedure\" rel=\"Tag\">Procedure<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/consumption\" rel=\"Tag\">consumption<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Kenworth\" rel=\"Tag\">Kenworth<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Ford\" rel=\"Tag\">Ford<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Motor\" rel=\"Tag\">Motor<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Company\" rel=\"Tag\">Company<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Rawsonville\" rel=\"Tag\">Rawsonville<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/fleet\" rel=\"Tag\">fleet<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Texaco\" rel=\"Tag\">Texaco<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/vehicle\" rel=\"Tag\">vehicle<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/engine\" rel=\"Tag\">engine<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/transmission\" rel=\"Tag\">transmission<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Both\" rel=\"Tag\">Both<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/world\" rel=\"Tag\">world<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/maintenance\" rel=\"Tag\">maintenance<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/module\" rel=\"Tag\">module<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/Although\" rel=\"Tag\">Although<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/procedures\" rel=\"Tag\">procedures<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/truck\" rel=\"Tag\">truck<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/trailers\" rel=\"Tag\">trailers<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/differentials\" rel=\"Tag\">differentials<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/vehicles\" rel=\"Tag\">vehicles<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\/tag\/trucks\" rel=\"Tag\">trucks<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AMSOIL SYNTHETIC LUBRICANTS INCREASE FUEL ECONOMY 6.54 PERCENT IN DIESEL TRUCKING APPLICATIONS1 FREE Amsoil Catalog For a copy of this study, ask for it in the catalog request form!
